Interesting idea. I for one would like to learn more about the various
organizations, what each focuses on, and how well they are deemed to be run
by the agencies who evaluate that kind of thing. There is a lot of knowledge
on this list, and what nobody knows we could find out.

As the population these organizations ostensibly serve, we do indeed have
power and also perhaps some responsibility as well to watch what's being done
in our name.*

every uplifting cliche uttered, a minor character of great goodness must get
